4th Annual HHS/DOI Buy Indian Industry Day

The Department of the Interior and the Department of Health and Human Services are co-hosting the 4th Annual Buy Indian Industry Day and Federal Matchmaking sessions. Scheduled for April 27–28, 2026, at the OKANA Conference Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, this event focuses on strengthening tribal economies through federal procurement and advancing the implementation of the Buy Indian Act. The forum brings together federal acquisition leaders, program officials, and Native American-owned businesses to align mission requirements with qualified partners, reduce barriers to entry, and expand contracting opportunities.

This special notice, identified by solicitation number OSDBU004, carries an ISBEE (Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise) set-aside. The two-day schedule consists of one day of training sessions followed by one day of matchmaking with buyers from both agencies. This event is co-hosted by all six Native APEX Accelerators and is offered at no charge to attendees.

Administrative details for this notice include a response deadline of April 27, 2026, which coincides with the event start date. Documentation associated with the notice includes two attachments: a promotional flyer and a "Save the Date" announcement. Participation and registration are managed through the Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) to support the Buy Indian Act small business industrial base.
